Ranji Trophy Final: Sarwate Anchors Kerala’s Reply After Pace Trio Strike Back
Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium: Kerala’s pace trio of Nedumankuzhy Basil, MD Nidheesh, and Eden Apple Tom ensured that Vidarbha could not fully capitalize on their strong overnight position on the second day of the Ranji Trophy final at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium at Jamtha here on Thursday.
Despite a lower-order resistance from Vidarbha, Kerala’s disciplined bowling kept them in the contest before Aditya Sarwate’s composed 66 not out led them to 131 for 3 at stumps.
Vidarbha, the previous edition’s finalists, resumed the day at 254/4 and were eventually bowled out for 379, with their tailenders frustrating Kerala in a crucial passage of play. A late 44-run stand between Harsh Dubey and Nachiket Bhute ensured Vidarbha crossed the 350-run mark, with Bhute scoring a crucial 32 off 38 balls.
